good luck cleaning them! I had the front on my night train for awhile before I switched out to the mags. It was a big pain to get the hub clean

Thanks. There are so many choices, it's hard to make a decision like this.

Black rims and spokes with chrome nipples would look killer too, if you have a blacked out theme! I love that look myself.

yeah, I know that these are going to be a pain in the rear to clean. But so is all the other chrome already on there! I was looking for mags, but nothing had the same visual appeal as the fat spokes. When it's time to clean, the sled will be on the jack, so at least I won't have to keep moving it back and forth in the driveway!

Called up Sinister and spoke to Ali. I can't say enough about the guy and his customer service. He answered all my questions, and gave me numerous quotes on different options.

I gave serious consideration to the the billet wheels, but in the end, I just loved the Big Daddy spoked wheels.

Put the order thru about 30 minutes ago. Here's the details:

16/21 combo w/ black spokes. Also order the rotors and pulley.

Let the waiting begin!


Great wheel choice, gonna look the Dogs on your ride!

Bro! What's up? Glad to see you on the forums. This place is the fastest way to drain your bank account!

What kind of wheels you thinking about for your Train?

Thanks Chap! Hearing you say it's the dogs is a big compliment.

Maybe Christmas will come early for you. I was going to wait until winter, but that didn't work out so well!

Dude, I hear that! This forum can be a mo'fo.

My wife truly is a saint to put up with the constant barrage or UPS deliveries and perpetual drain on our funds...!

Truth is, your Deluxe looks killer. The more I see pictures of all these bikes on here with wheels added, the more I realized my Springer just didn't look fully finished.

And it hasn't even been 24 hours, and the wait is already killing me. I can't wait to see these suckers mounted up!
